Hundreds of thousands of Kiwis who do not yet have both doses of the Covid-19 vaccine face a tightening of their freedoms on December 3, when the Government moves the entire country into the new “traffic-light” system.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the date on Monday, saying Covid-19 was not going to be eradicated from New Zealand.

“The hard truth is that Delta is here and not going away,” Ardern said.

While Aucklanders will finally see an end to New Zealand’s longest lockdown, those in other parts of the country could face far more restrictions if they have not been fully-vaccinated.

Halloween idiots 🎃

Barry from Northwood

Watch out for these teens currently doing the rounds in Northwood. They rang our bell after masking up and raided the whole bowl of lollies that we had for little kids out having Halloween fun. Then make off with the pumpkin that my kid spent ages carefully carving out. Idiots!

Freedom camping has been banned in a seaside Christchurch suburb following pleas from residents fed up with messy campers.

Southshore residents are hoping bylaw changes approved by the Christchurch City Council last week will put an end to freedom campers parking outside their homes and leaving a trail of urine-filled bottles, rubbish and condoms behind.

The council had proposed to include Southshore in a new coastal zone that allowed freedom camping in self-contained campers for up to four nights out of 30. The move was designed to get rid of a loophole that allowed campers to stay in the area for more than 24 nights without breaching the bylaw.

The new zone was approved but Southshore was excluded, and all freedom camping would be prohibited from Caspian St south from December 1.
